Feline were an English rock group formed in London, in 1995. They formed from the remnants of a few earlier underground bands such as Flinch and Miranda Sex Garden. Like most female-fronted rock groups of that era in popular music, they were likened to more mainstream acts such as Garbage, and the Cardigans. Feline officially formed in October 1995 with Grog on vocals and bass, Guy Prebble and Drew Richards on guitar and Steve Drew on drums. Shortly after forming, Guy Prebble left the band and was replaced by guitarist Ted Garcia. The band then performed live throughout the following year, including a spot at the Phoenix Festival in the summer of 1996, during which time they signed a major label deal with Chrysalis Records, a subsidiary of EMI. The band built up a steady set of songs which were recorded at the beginning of 1997 for their first release. They issued "Sun In My Eyes" as a proper single release in May 1998, but due to little promotion it charted at #88 in the UK. The band nevertheless toured in support of it, and prepared to release a follow-up single, the newly recorded "Drama Queen" in July 1998. The release was cancelled at last minute, as the band felt that they would rather re-release their debut album - updated and expanded with the new tracks. The new edition of their album was self-titled Feline and was issued with different packaging to Save Your Face. The band took off on a short summer tour to promote it, with the addition of new drummer Al Fletcher who replaced Mig. The album's closing track "Release" was then planned as the band's next single, with a video being shot by Howard Greenhalgh. Unfortunately, in late 1998, EMI shook up their roster of acts, and the band were dropped from the label before "Release" was issued. After this, the band decided to go their separate ways.
